Summary: | The question discussed in the article is if there are possible links between the centralization command, as used in the Temple Scroll, and the inscriptions on Mount Gerizim. If this can be established, the next question is what character the city and temple of the Scroll have, and what this character implies for possible fronts which the Scroll has. Scholars commonly assume that the front is against Jerusalem and its temple, but have not had Mount Gerizim in mind. The city and sanctuary on that mountain existed when the Scroll took form. In this article, an attempt is made to draw Mount Gerizim into the picture. |
